buckingham Palace shortly after O'clock,
and five minutes later her majesty passed
into the palace amidst the most tumultuous
cheering, with her escort of generals on
either side. The Marquis and Warehouses
of Salisbury, who had hurried to the palace
by a shorter way from the Abbey, were
present to receive her. The Queen bore her
journey well and was seen soon after return
ing laughing and smiling at the royal chill
dren, who were upon the nsain balcony of
the palace, and kissing her hands to them.
THE oMNIPRESENT AMERICAN.
Among the Americans present at the ser
vice in the Abbey were United States Minis
ter Lawton, Senators Mcpherson and Hale,
Congressman Perry Belmont, ex-Gov Eng
lish, of Connecticut; Mr.. Gilfllan, of
Minnesota; Prof. Parker, of Dartmouth
College; Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, Mr.. James
Russell Lowell and Mr.. James G. Blaine.
DRESSES AND UNIFORMS.
The Queens dress was not striking

figure in the procession was the German
Crown Prince, whose magnificent physique,
set off by the snow white uniform, shone
conspicuously among the prlncely throng
The Prince Of Wales, who wore the familiar
red uniform, seemed Insignificant in com
parison. Grand Duke Sergius, of Russia,
who wore a curious, but picturesque cape,
was, after the German Grown Prince, much
the most striking figure.
ACCIDENTS AND INCIDENTS.
By the time the royal procession got
started from Buckingham Palace, the
weather had become pretty warm, and the
breeze, so refreshing allthe morning. began
to subside. While the procession was pass
ing through Pail Mall three persons in that
thoroughfare We're sun struck. A number
of persons along the route were crushed into
insensibility and were Removed to the hos
pitfalls. Several policemen were overcome by
the heat and taken home in ashbulances. The
horse ridden by the Marquis of Lorne was
restive while the procession was moving
along Constitution Hill and threw the Mar

walked alongside the Queens carriage
short distance and then mounted another
horse and continued his Journey by shorter
route to the Abbey, having fallen behind
and relinquished his place as one of the
royal escort to the Queens carriage.
THE GENERAL RESULT.
The Jubilee demonstration was stupen-
dous success At least 1000, 900 people were
crowded along the route of the royal pro-
cession about three miles in length.
The impression left on the minds Of those
who saw the pageant is that what ever
boundless wealth, military pomp and illus
trious rank could do to create and heighten
the effect of states show of loyalty or to
demonstrate the affection of the people for
their sovereign, was done for to-daYs de-
monstration, and that result surpassed any
thing of the kind ever seen in Europe in
modern times at least.

was also erected in front of the War Office,
and here the upper officials took all the best
seats. As the procession passed into ST.

The enthusiastic sight-seers, not content
with having one view at Westminster, had
rushed across st. James and Green Park to
get another view in Piccadilly. The sway
ing of the crowds in some places was ter
rife, until the Wellington arch was again
reached, and then the procession proceeded
at a somewhat smarter pace up Constitu-
ton Hill and once more reached Bucking-
ham palace, driving in at the grand en-
trance; amid the cheers OF 10000 people.
The return parade was made
amid prolonged and unbroken
succession Of popular acolamation,

The orders were given to drive the crowds
back, and rope off the streets. This was
done by the police, whose number had been
increased by the arrival of a squad OF
mounted officers, but not until some
vigorous clubbing had been doue. In
the rush at the Dock Square

THE RIcHMoND. DIspATCn-- SATURDAY. MARCH 10 1887.
One OF the witnesses Against mrs.
surrats In she Tolls.

A baltimore telegram says: Benja-
min Spandsuer, one OF the most i'm
rortnnt agents in procuring the conyic-
ton of Mrs Surratt, and who has since
been charged with manufacturing the
testimony given on that occasion, was
tbis morning arraigned before Justice
Hobbs on the charge Of endeavoring 10
mpede the administration OF justice.
The charge grew out OF Spandauer's al
legged connection with the suit of Mrs.
Johanna Jensen for divorce from her
husband. John Jensen. The case was
decided in favor OF the wife, the Judge
awarding heralimony. Spandauer was
principal witness for Jensen, but
Judge Fisher would not accept his tes-
timony, pronouncing it a tissue of lies
from beginning to end.
At the trial Of Mrs. Mary Surratt in
Nav and June, 1865, Spandauer and
Louis J. Weichmann, the latter's evil
dence being regarded as corroborative,
testified that Mrs. Surratt, who kept a
clearinghouse at which Wilkes Booth,
Harold, Spangler, and others met had
been frequently in the room where the
conferences of the conspirators were
held, and thus connected her with the
plot. She was adjudged guilty by the
Military Commission, and her execu-
ton took place in the old arsenal at
Washington July 3, 1865. For "a number
of years succeeding the war Spandauer
and Weichmann were lost sight of.
Nothing more was heard of the latter
until his death in Philadelphia in great
destitntion two or three years
ago. Spandauer reappeared in Bal
timore about four years ago. After
few months he went to Ger
man named Heinrich Muhla, who lived
on East Madison street near Bond, and
exhibiting an English newspaper, which
Muha was unable to read, explained
to him that be (Muhla) was one of ten
heirs to an estate in Germany or Eng
land valued at about 50, 900, 900, and
agreed to collect his share for GER
tain percentage. He so impressed the
old man with his honesty that Mr..
Muhla advanced him 800. Spandauer
kept up the bleeding process until he
had succeeded in getting about 81, 300
out of his victim. Mr.. Muhla finally
became convinced that the estate was
myth, and had Spandauer arrested.
On the trial Spandauer pleaded guilty
and was sent to Jail for three years.
He was released about six months ago.
Spandauer's picture is in the Rogues'
Gallery, and his record is said by the
police authorities to be "as crooked as
serpent on rock"

BURGLARS VISIT.

Gold Mustc-ffox.
New York SUM-

1 lNcN 10TH oeh-l
A robbery committed on Monday
night at Mrs. Hicks-Lord's splendid
Washington-Square mansion was made
public yesterday through an advertise
ment offering reward for the return
| of the property. The burglar or bur-
| glars, from a balcony on the Washing
ton-Place side of the building, forced
their way through window and found
| themselves in one of the drawing
| rooms. There was no lack OF brio a
brac and valuables there, but the
thieves contented themselves with
taking a small gold music.b box with a
mechanical singing bird in it. The
other things were too fragile and hard
to get away with safely.
Passing into the dining-room, an ex-
tenaon-rooin on the parlor floor, the
marauders found things more TO their
mind. The sideboard was literally
loaded with solid silverware, and this
appealed directly to their taste. They
swept it clean of solid stuff, and got
away at once. There are no signs to
indicate that they visited any other part
of the house.
The robbery was discovered by the
servants of 6 O'Clock on Tuesday morn
ing, the first time that floor had been
visited by any of the household since
II O'Clock at night. The property stolen
consists Of n set of five silver trays or
walters and a coifee-pot, teapot, and
slop-bowl to match three pairs of silver
sugar-tongs, r plain silver plate and a
plain silver tray, all solid and the
music-box. They were valued in the
aggregate at 1000.
Through a downtown businessman
Mrs. Hicks-Lord advertised reward of
$500 for the return of the silver set I'M
broken, and sos and Sl5 apiece for the
recovery of separate pieces, the large
pieces at the first figure and the
smaller ones at the other. A special
reward of $25 was offered for the music
box.
Mrs. Hicks-Lord has occupied the
house at 81 Washington Square, west,

turn from an extended absence ABROAD,

INCREASING THE POPULATION.

North Carolina receives perhaps as
little immigration as any other State,
vet, as the census returns show, its IN
crease of population is remarkable.
This must needs be the case in a COM
munity of people living so largely on
agricultural life, and of course a home
life. There is no State with larger
proportion of children per family, it is
also said, and no doubt there is good
ground for the assertion. In Harnett
county Margaret Mcneil has just given
birth to four living children.
